Well, I think Lordjedi does have a point--its not like their are squads of FBI agents surfing the net full-time looking for teenagers downloading Nickelback illegally. Most the time it is private organisations like the RIAA, who are looking out for their own interests and are the appointed regulators of the music industry, who assign specialists to smoke out illegal downloaders and then alert the FBI, who then investigate and/or take action. Its still a huge waste of national resources but its not always quite as absurd as we like to portray it.
